Liam ran his hands through his hair, which seemed to be a family trait. “I was watching Jack that first night here and when he caught sight of you, he didn’t notice anything, or anyone, else. You had all of his attention even through dinner.”
“Considering you asked me out, way back when, you don’t seem too bothered that I’m attracted to your brother.” There was something about Liam that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. He wasn’t gay, I don’t mean anything like that, because he looked at enough girls when we were out and about, but there was something.
“At first I thought there might have been something there between us, but there wasn’t. I like you as a friend, something of which I don’t have that many of.” He let out a sigh. “You know I think we need to clean up and then head into town.”
“Okay. I’ll quickly clean these while you go and find your shoes.”
Liam left me in the kitchen while I put the pots away and unable to help myself I kept looking out of the window to see if I could spot Jack.
“Who are you looking for?”
“Jack.” I spun around with my hand to my chest. “You scared the shit out of me.”
“You didn’t answer my question,” he said walking towards me.
My back was against the sink as Jack came to a stop, just inches in front of me. He looked angry and his hair was all messy.
Without a thought as to what I was doing, I reached up and placed my hand to his chest. I could feel his heart racing. Moving my hand away he clutched it in his and placed it back to his chest.
“Who were you looking for, Thalia?” he whispered.
I moved my other hand to his face in a light caress and kept it there as I replied, “You, Jack. I was looking for you.”
Standing so close to him, my whole body felt hot and tight, my breasts ached, my stomach quivered and all I wanted was to wrap myself around him.
“You’re back!” Liam stated, walking back into the room.
“Fuck,” Jack briefly leaned his forehead against mine, placing a kiss on my nose, before walking out of the kitchen and up the stairs.
“Looks like I walked in at just the right time,” Liam said grinning.
“Or not,” I mumbled.
Chapter 27
Jack
After making my escape to my room to shower and change again, I grabbed my keys, climbed into the car and drove to Donovan’s place.
What the fuck was I doing with Thalia? If Liam hadn’t walked in when he had I’d have kissed the life out of her and I wasn’t sure I’d have been able to stop. My cock had throbbed and been taken care of in the shower with images of how aroused Thalia had been standing in front of me. I’d noticed her erect nipples poking out underneath her t-shirt and I’d bet that if I’d touched her between her legs, she’d have been wet.
Goddamn, my cock was causing a restriction in my jeans, which was bordering on painful. I needed to think about something else before I arrived at Donovan’s with a boner.
Mia popped into my head. Since yesterday she’d sent me a few text regarding the wedding and I’d replied with maybe one or two words. One of the messages had been to tell me she had a best man lined up for me, to which I’d replied, that if she expected me to turn up, the best men would be Donovan and Reece. I hadn’t heard anything since, which I hoped was a good sign. I could have kicked myself afterwards though for not turning it more to my advantage by telling her it wasn’t going ahead so she didn’t need to fuss anymore.
I was chickenshit. The whole thing could have been stopped by now, but for me wanting to please everyone and finish college.
Climbing out of the car I noticed Reece’s bike parked at the foot of the path. Why he couldn’t park the thing next to Donovan’s car was anyone’s guess, but he always blocked the damn path.
I yanked the door open, ignored them both and walked straight into the kitchen for a beer. I never drink during the day, but I needed a huge distraction.
Taking my beer back into the sitting room, I sat down in one of the recliners while I gulped some of the beer down.
“So who pissed you off?” Reece asked.
Where the hell did I start, because I felt pissed with everyone?
“My morning started off great, thanks to having the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen in my arms and then it kind of went downhill fast, and for that I can blame Lewis and my dad.”
